'Jam Sessions' (NDS) Song List Announced

Players will rock out, or smoothly strum, on the lower screen of the Nintendo DS system, producing an authentic sound digitally remastered from an actual acoustic guitar. The simple interface will guide players into the various easy-to-play modes which include: Performance Mode, allowing users to sing and play along both yesterday and todays hottest artists; Free-Play Mode, where people can play anything they chose; and Tutorial Mode where novice musicians will learn to play guitar without paying for lessons.

Jam Sessions is a ground-breaking music experience that transforms the Nintendo DS™ system into a portable guitar. Players will literally strum the guitar via the Touch Screen and select chords with the +Control Pad. Now even the most “non-musical” person to become an instant rock star!

The portability of the DS system makes Jam Sessions a concert-on-the-go, perfect for parties, commuting to school/work and other social gatherings.

The songs, which span decades of music and include a variety of genres, classic rock, reggae, country, alternative and soul allow players to learn their favorite songs and get to know new ones. So, whether it's via Nirvana or Amy Winehouse, players can rock out or chill out to their hearts' content.
